Abstract Erythrogenic toxin type C (ETC) from different streptococcal group A strains was successively purified by absorption on phenylsepharose, acidic dialysis of the eluate at 40% saturated ammonium sulphate solution, CM-Sepharose chromatography, finally by immunoaffinity chromatography on monoclonal antibodies. Second, after growing of bacteria in the presence of [32 P]orthophosphate to phosphorylate ETC, the ETC was purified with phenylsepharose following immunoaffinity chromatography. The occurrence of phosphoamino acids in the purified ETC was investigated by an immunoassay. No phosphoamino acids could be detected in the ETC molecule. Also after radiolabelling with 32 P it was not possible to demonstrate a radioactive signal. The treatment with alkaline phosphatase has no influence on the mitogenicity or position of ETC in isoelectric focusing. The results obtained led to the conclusion that in contrast to the literature, ETC is not a phosphorylated protein. 相似文献

A variety of isolation procedures were carried out to study the involvement of bacteria in the colonisation and biodeterioration of Spanish caves with paleolithic rock art (Altamira and Tito Bustillo). The applied techniques mainly aimed to isolate heterotrophic bacteria such as streptomycetes, nocardioform and coryneform actinomycetes, and other gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. The results demonstrated that actinomycetes were the most abundant gram-positive bacteria in the caves. Actinomycetes revealed a great taxonomic diversity with the predominant isolates belonging to the genus Streptomyces. Members of the genera Nocardia, Rhodococcus, Nocardioides, Amycolatopsis, Saccharothrix, Brevibacterium, Microbacterium, and coccoid actinomycetes (family Micrococcaceae) were also found. 相似文献

The characterization of protein expression patterns by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis depends on efficient and reliable identification strategies for target spots. In addition to sophisticated techniques, such as microsequencing and peptide mass spectrometry, immunodetection of membrane-immobilized proteins is a valuable method with which to identify the corresponding spots for a given set of candidate proteins. To precisely assign immunoreactive spots, this approach requires specific immunodetection and staining of total protein to be performed on the same membrane. Here, we describe a highly sensitive, colloidal silver-based method for the assignment of immunoreactive spots in two-dimensional protein patterns. This simple and rapid procedure involves a destaining step after staining of nitrocellulose-bound proteins with colloidal silver. We show that destaining of proteins is a prerequisite for subsequent immunodetection using enhanced chemiluminescence. Several types of antibodies were successfully employed for antigen detection after the staining-destaining procedure. Our results demonstrate that the colloidal silver-based method is generally applicable for the unambiguous identification of candidate proteins in complex two-dimensional patterns. 相似文献

Lipid rafts serve as platforms for BCR signal transduction. To better define the molecular basis of these membrane microdomains, we used two-dimensional gel electrophoresis and mass spectrometry to characterize lipid raft proteins from mature as well as immature B cell lines. Of 51 specific raft proteins, we identified a total of 18 proteins by peptide mass fingerprinting. Among them, we found vacuolar ATPase subunits alpha-1 and beta-2, vimentin, gamma-actin, mitofilin, and prohibitin. None of these has previously been reported in lipid rafts of B cells. The differential raft association of three proteins, including a novel potential signaling molecule designated swiprosin-1, correlated with the stage-specific sensitivity of B cells to BCR-induced apoptosis. In addition, MHC class II molecules were detected in lipid rafts of mature, but not immature B cells. This intriguing finding points to a role for lipid rafts in regulating Ag presentation during B cell maturation. Finally, a fraction of the BCR in the B cell line CH27 was constitutively present in lipid rafts. Surprisingly, this fraction was neither expressed at the cell surface nor fully O-glycosylated. Thus, we conclude that partitioning the BCR into lipid rafts occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum/cis-Golgi compartment and may represent a control mechanism for surface transport. 相似文献

Precursor BCR (pre-BCR) signaling governs proliferation and differentiation of pre-B cells during B lymphocyte development. However, it is controversial as to which parts of the pre-BCR, which is composed of Igmu H chain, surrogate L chain (SLC), and Igalpha-Igbeta, are important for signal initiation. Here, we show in transgenic mice that the N-terminal non-Ig-like (unique) tail of the surrogate L chain component lambda5 is critical for enhancing pre-BCR-induced proliferation signals. Pre-BCRs with a mutated lambda5 unique tail are still transported to the cell surface, but they deliver only basal signals that trigger survival and differentiation of pre-B cells. Further, we demonstrate that the positively charged residues of the lambda5 unique tail, which are required for pre-BCR self-oligomerization, can also mediate binding to stroma cell-associated self-Ags, such as heparan sulfate. These findings establish the lambda5 unique tail as a pre-BCR-specific autoreactive signaling motif that could increase the size of the primary Ab repertoire by selectively expanding pre-B cells with functional Igmu H chains. 相似文献

Gas exchange and intrapulmonary distribution of ventilation during continuous-flow ventilation 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In 12 anesthetized paralyzed dogs, pulmonary gas exchange and intrapulmonary inspired gas distribution were compared between continuous-flow ventilation (CFV) and conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Nine dogs were studied while they were lying supine, and three dogs were studied while they were lying prone. A single-lumen catheter for tracheal insufflation and a double-lumen catheter for bilateral endobronchial insufflation [inspired O2 fraction = 0.4; inspired minute ventilation = 1.7 +/- 0.3 (SD) 1.kg-1.min-1] were evaluated. Intrapulmonary gas distribution was assessed from regional 133Xe clearances. In dogs lying supine, CO2 elimination was more efficient with endobronchial insufflation than with tracheal insufflation, but the alveolar-arterial O2 partial pressure difference was larger during CFV than during CMV, regardless of the type of insufflation. By contrast, endobronchial insufflation maintained both arterial PCO2 and alveolar-arterial O2 partial pressure difference at significantly lower levels in dogs lying prone than in dogs lying supine. In dogs lying supine, the dependent lung was preferentially ventilated during CMV but not during CFV. In dogs lying prone, gas distribution was uniform with both modes of ventilation. The alveolar-arterial O2 partial pressure difference during CFV in dogs lying supine was negatively correlated with the reduced ventilation of the dependent lung, which suggests that increased ventilation-perfusion mismatching was responsible for the increase in alveolar-arterial O2 partial pressure difference. The more efficient oxygenation during CFV in dogs lying prone suggests a more efficient matching of ventilation to perfusion, presumably because the distribution of blood flow is also nearly uniform. 相似文献

Summary The intrinsic viscosity of phosphofructokinase fromDunaliella salina in different states of aggregation was determined. The instrinsic viscosity [], of the biologically active tetramer, with a molecular weight of 320,000, was found to be 6.5 ml·g–1 at 4°C. Moreover, for the inactive dimer, with a molecular weight of 160,000, a value of []=8.0 ml·g–1 was determined. The high molecular weight aggregate of phosphofructokinase fromDunaliella salina, that shows little activity, has an intrinsic viscosity of 23.2 ml·g–1, which is significantly higher than that found for the active tetramer and the inactive dimer.Small angle X-ray scattering experiments in solution of this high molecular from of phosphofructokinase fromDunaliella salina reveal a radius of gyration of the cross section ofR
c=49.0 Å at an ionic strength of 0.15 M andpH 7.2. Furthermore, a comparison of the values obtained for the tetramer and the radius of gyration (R
g=52.9 Å) with those of typical spherical proteins (3–4 ml·g–1) shows that the values of [] andR
g are significantly larger for the high molecular weight form of phosphofructokinase than for the spherical proteins. The high intrinsic viscosity of the polymeric form of phosphofructokinase suggests an end-to-end aggregation consisting of monomeric units with heights,h=80–90 Å, and a cylindrical diameter of approximately 140.0 Å, resulting in a long rod of a total length of 1,800 Å and a molecular weight of two million. On the basis of the experimentally observedR
c and [] values, using a prolate ellipsoid of revolution as a model, the hydrodynamic volume and the hydration, the axial ratio could be determined to be 12. The native tetrameric form contains 0.4 g H2O/g protein, whereas the higher aggregate structure corresponds to a hydration of 0.60 g H2O/g protein. 相似文献

Small angle X-ray scattering measurements on solutions of native rabbit muscle phosphofructokinase (EC 2.7.1.11; ATP; D-fructose-6-phosphate 1 phosphotransferase) show that the dimer has a radius of gyration of 32.5 Å and a molecular weight of 160,000, and that the biologically active tetramer has a radius of gyration of 51.5 Å and a molecular weight of 320.000. A possible model was calculated from scattering curves of the dimer and tetramer suggesting two hollow cylinders with cell dimensions for the dimer of a height of 78.0 Å and a long half axis of 38.0 Å, and for the tetramer of a height of 155.0 Å and an outer radius of 35.0 Å. The tetramer is formed along the 78.0 Å axis of the dimer by means of an end-to-end aggregation. The overall particle dimensions of the protomer of molecular weight 80,000 is calculated to be 35.0 × 30.0 × 55.0 Å, assuming an elliptical molecule. The distance between the centers of the two dimeric units within the tetramer is 104.5 ± 1.5 Å. 相似文献
